My advise would be sell the gun and recoup some of your money, it's a money pit. Lean more about Parkers and the what original condition both mechanical and finishes are correct. Save your money and eventually buy yourself a gun that doesn't have issues. Your purchase is a cost of the education in vintage guns believe me we have all been there. In my case as a long time collector, I still make mistakes that end up costing me money. Your best decision was to join this forum and the PGCA, an investment which will pay you back in spades.
